Can I go back to Windows 8 from Windows 8.1 on a Virtual Machine/PC??

So how did you obtain 10?

Did you buy it; was it the free upgrade.

If it was the free upgrade from 8/8.1 > 10: no, you can't go back to 8/8.1 unless you remove 10 completely and then you would have nothing to install a VM in.'

you have to explain more

Is the Windows 10 in question installed as the host or is on the virtual machine?

Is it the Windows 10 host or the Windows 10 guest that you want to downgrade to Windows 8?

Either of which, If it was Windows 8 that was initially installed before the upgrade to Windows 10, you can downgrade to Windows 8 without losing data if the windows.old folder is still intact. Other than that, to downgrade you'll need to perform a clean install but you can backup your files prior to that.

There is NO download for Windows 8.

And if 8 came preinstalled it is not used in a VM anyway as that is contrary to the OEM license.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Microsoft summed it up very well;

You only have a limited time to use this method:

Go back to Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 - Microsoft Support

It is Windows 8.1 as a VM (Virtual Machine) And my current OS is Windows 10.

I was watching a Windows 8.1 to Windows 8 without losing data VIDEO. I'm interested If I can go back to Windows 8.

WARNING: My OS is NOT Windows 8.1. It is Windows 10, If you already know, Skip this Text

So is it possible??

I see you have edited it.

You are confused with watching 8.1 > 8.

If a person had a computer preinstalled with 8 > then they upgraded to 8.1 > IF they did a Refresh it went back to 8.

That is nothing to do with your Windows 10 question.

That was something solely to do with Windows 8/8.1.

Good question! When I bought my PC It had Win10 on it.

So I never bought a CD/DVD of Win10 Because The PC I bought had Win10.
